Oops, sorry...

I've assumed also Debian sources when reading « based on the most

expect the VServer patch won't probably apply to a (so heavily)
patched kernel tree, isn't it ?

If the config are as possible the same, yes, it should leads to
spotting some differences...

That's kind & many thanks for your work in any case ;)
